Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS – Flexsteel Industries, Inc., and Subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Flexsteel” or “Our”) is one of the largest manufacturers, importers, and marketers of furniture products in the United States. Product offerings include a wide variety of furniture such as sofas, loveseats, chairs, reclining rocking chairs, swivel rockers, sofa beds, convertible bedding units, occasional tables, desks, dining tables and chairs, kitchen storage, bedroom furniture, and outdoor furniture. A featured component in most of the upholstered furniture is a unique steel drop-in seat spring from which the name “Flexsteel” is derived. The Company distributes its products throughout the United States through its e-commerce channel and dealer sales force.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flexsteel Industries, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s consolidated financial statements and results of operations are based on consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

USE OF ESTIMATES – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Ultimate results could differ from those estimates.

FAIR VALUE – The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and certain accrued liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. GAAP on fair value measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities require that each asset and liability carried at fair value be classified into one of the following categories: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; or Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES – The Company establishes an allowance for credit losses to reduce trade accounts receivable to an amount that reasonably approximates their net realizable value. The Company’s allowance for credit losses is established through review of open accounts, historical collection, and historical write-off amounts. The amount ultimately realized from trade accounts receivable may differ from the amount estimated in the consolidated financial statements.

INVENTORIES – Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value utilizing the first‑in - first‑out (“FIFO”) method. Cost of manufactured inventory includes materials, labor and overhead. In addition, finished goods inventory includes capitalized freight, import duties, and warehousing costs. Our inventory valuation reflects markdowns for the excess of the cost over the amount expected to be realized and considers obsolete and excess inventory. Markdowns establish a new cost basis for the Company’s inventory. Subsequent changes in facts or circumstances do not result in the reversal of previously recorded markdowns or an increase in that newly established cost basis.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT – Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

VALUATION OF LONG–LIVED ASSETS – The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets and estimated depreciable or amortizable lives for continued appropriateness. This review is based upon projections of anticipated future cash flows and is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that asset carrying values may not be recoverable or that the estimated depreciable or amortizable lives may have changed. For long-lived assets, including right-of-use lease assets, if the net book value of the asset is greater than its estimated fair value less cost to sell, an impairment is recorded for the excess of net book value over estimated fair value less cost to sell.

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE – Assets held for sale represent land, buildings, machinery and equipment for locations that have met the criteria of “held for sale” accounting, as specified by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” Once an asset is classified as held for sale, the Company ceases depreciating the asset. The assets held for sale are being marketed for sale and it is the Company’s intention to complete the sale of the assets within the upcoming year.

RESTRUCTURING COSTS - The Company groups exit or disposal cost obligations into three categories: involuntary employee termination benefits, costs to terminate contracts, and other associated costs. Involuntary employee termination benefits must be a one-time benefit, and this element of restructuring cost is recognized as incurred upon communication of the plan to the identified employees.

Coststo terminate contracts are recognized upon termination agreement with the provider. Other associated restructuring costs are expensed as incurred. Any inventory impairment costs as a result of restructuring activities are accounted for as cost of goods sold.

LEASES – The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. ASC 842 requires lessees to (i) recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and a lease liability that is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, (ii) recognize a single lease cost, calculated over the lease term on a straight-line basis and (iii) classify lease-related cash payments within operating and financing activities. The Company made an accounting policy election to not recognize short-term leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and all non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, were excluded. See Note 2, Leases, for the Company’s lease disclosures.

WARRANTY – The Company estimates the amount of warranty claims on sold product that may be incurred based on current and historical data. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance.

REVENUE RECOGNITION – Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We generate revenue primarily by manufacturing and delivering furniture products to independent furniture retailers in the United States. Each unit of furniture is a separate performance obligation. We satisfy our performance obligations when control of our product is passed to our customer, which is the point in time that our customers are able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining economic benefit of the goods or services. Net sales consist of product sales and outbound shipping and handling charges for customer deliveries, net of adjustments for returns and allowances. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

The Company’s revenues result from the sale of goods and reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Revenue is reduced by appropriate allowances, estimated returns, price concessions, or similar adjustments as applicable. The Company records revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. For its customer contracts, typically purchase orders, the Company identifies the performance obligations (goods), determines the transaction price, allocates the contract transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes the revenue when the performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A good is transferred when the customer obtains control of that good and risk of loss transfers at a point in time.

Provisions for customer volume rebates, product returns, discounts, and allowances are variable considerations and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related sales are recorded. Such provisions are calculated based upon historical data and discount percentages, set with each customer. Consideration given to customers for cooperative advertising is recognized as a reduction of revenue except to the extent there is a distinct good or service and evidence of the fair value of the advertising, in which case the expense is classified as selling, general and administrative expense (SG&A).

The Company has a limited lifetime warranty on all products. The Company does not offer the option to purchase warranties. The Company accounts for warranties under ASC 460, Guarantees, and not as variable consideration related to revenue.

Occasionally, the Company receives deposits from customers before it has transferred control of the product to customers, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities are reported within “Accounts payable - trade” in the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $0.25 million of customer deposits. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $0.14 million of customer deposits.

The Company follows the following practical expedients and policy elections:

The Company does not adjust contract prices for the effects of a significant financing component, as it expects the period when the goods or services are transferred to the customer and when the customer pays for those goods and services to be less than a year.

Costs for outbound shipping and handling activities that occur after the product is received in the Company’s distribution centers, but before the customer obtains control of the product are accounted for as fulfillment activities. Accordingly, these expenses are recorded at the same time the Company recognizes revenue. Inbound shipping and handling activities incurred to transport product to the Company’s distribution centers is expensed when the product is received by the Company, unless there are revenue surcharges to recover such costs, in which case these expenses are recorded at the same time the Company recognizes revenue.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract, specifically commissions, are recorded as an SG&A expense when incurred.

All taxes imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing transactions and collected by the Company from a customer, including sales, use, excise, and franchise taxes are excluded from the measurement of the transaction price.

ADVERTISING COSTS – are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the periods incurred. The Company conducts no direct-response advertising programs and there are no assets related to advertising recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Advertising expenditures, primarily shared customer advertising in which an identifiable benefit is received and national trade-advertising programs, were approximately $3.4 million, $5.9 million, and $5.1 millionin fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

DESIGN, RESEARCH, AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS – are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the periods incurred. Expenditures for design, research, and development costs were approxima tely $2.1 million, $2.1 million, and $2.1 million in fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

INSURANCE – The Company is self-insured for health care and most workers’ compensation up to predetermined amounts above which third-party insurance applies. The Company purchases specific stop-loss insurance for individual health care claims in excess of$175,000 per plan year. For workers’ compensation, the Company retains the first $250,000 per claim and purchases excess coverage up to the statutory limits for amounts in excess of the retention limit. Losses are accrued based upon the Company’s estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred using certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on Company experience. The Company records these insurance accruals within “Accrued liabilities – insurance” on the consolidated balance sheets.

INCOME TAXES – The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company recognizes in its financial statements the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12“Income Taxes Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)” as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 eliminate certain exceptions related to the approach for interim period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences.

EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) – Basic EPS of common stock is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each fiscal year. Diluted EPS of common stock includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. The Company’s potential common shares outstanding are stock options, shares associated with the long-term management incentive compensation plan and non-vested restricted shares. The Company calculates the dilutive effect of outstanding options using the treasury stock method; all options are anti-dilutive when there is a loss. Anti-dilutive shares are not included in the computation of diluted EPS when their exercise price was greater than the average closing market price of the common shares. The Company calculates the dilutive effect of shares related to the long-term management incentive compensation plan and non-vested shares based on the number of shares, if any, that would be issuable if the end of the fiscal year were the end of the contingency period. In computing EPS, net income as reported for each respective period is divided by the fully diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding:

Potential common shares:
Stock options10011762
Long-term incentive plan32923298
Diluted shares5,6785,5195,385
Anti-dilutive shares637161

STOCK–BASED COMPENSATION – The Company recognizes compensation expense related to the cost of employee services received in exchange for Company equity interests based on the award’s fair value at the date of grant. The Company recognizes long-term incentive compensation plan expenses during the three-year performance periods; stock awards are issued following the end of the performance periods and are subject to verification of results and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approval. See Note 11, Stock-Based Compensation.

SEGMENT REPORTING – The Company operates asone operating segment andone reportable segment, furniture products. The Company’s operations involve the distribution of manufactured and imported furniture for the residential market. The Company’s furniture products are sold primarily throughout the United States by the Company’s internal sales force and various independent representatives. The Company has minimal export sales, primarily to Canada or Mexico. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales. See Note 12, Segment Information.

TREASURY STOCK – Treasury stock purchases are stated at cost and presented as a reduction of equity on the consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has purchased a total of 3,207,158 shares at a cost of $71.7 million under approved share repurchase programs and has $30 million remaining in the share repurchase program approved in December 2024.

RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS PENDING ADOPTION – In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impacts of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023 09 “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The amendments in this ASU are intended to increase transparency through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the income tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This ASU will become effective for us for the annual period beginning in fiscal year 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the new guidance will have on our related disclosures, but do not expect this guidance will have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS – In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which requires business entities to enhance segment disclosures about significant segment expenses and disclose the position and title of the chief operating decision maker. The ASU also requires that a public entity with a single reportable segment, like the Company, provide all of the disclosures required as part of ASU 2023-07 and all existing disclosures required by Topic 280. The ASU was adopted July 1, 2024, and has been applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or results of operations. See Note 12, Segment Information.

  1. LEASES

The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASU 842, Leases. ASC 842 requires lessees to (i) recognize a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and a lease liability that is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, (ii) recognize a single lease cost, calculated over the lease term on a straight-line basis and (iii) classify lease-related cash payments within operating and financing activities. The Company made an accounting policy election to not recognize short-term leases on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and all non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, were excluded. At any given time during the lease term, the lease liability represents the present value of the remaining lease payments, and the ROU asset is measured as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for pre-paid rent, unamortized initial direct costs, the remaining balance of lease incentives received, and any impairment. Both the lease ROU asset and lease liability are reduced to zero at the end of the lease term.

The Company leases distribution centers and warehouses, manufacturing facilities, showrooms, and office space. At the lease inception date, the Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease. Some of the Company’s leases include options to renew at similar terms. The Company assesses these options to determine if the Company is reasonably certain of exercising these options based on relevant economic and financial factors. Options that meet these criteria are included in the lease term at the lease commencement date.

For purposes of measuring the Company’s ROU asset and lease liability, the discount rate utilized by the Company was based on the average interest rates effective for the Company’s line of credit. Some of the Company’s leases contain variable rent payments, including common area maintenance and utilities. Due to the variable nature of these costs, they are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability.

In July 2022, Flexsteel commenced a 12-year lease for a manufacturing facility in Mexicali, Mexico to support strong demand growth which was elevated due to pandemic-driven buying at that time. Subsequently, U.S. furniture demand reverted to pre-pandemic norms, and the Company’s plan for the facility pivoted to subleasing the space short-term while maintaining the option to utilize it longer term to support growth. While the Company secured multiple short-term sublease tenants at the beginning of the lease term, substantial changes in U.S. trade policy in early 2025 created significant uncertainty in US-Mexico trade relations, slowed foreign direct investment in Mexico, and greatly diminished tenant interest in subleasing the Mexicali facility. As a result, management concluded that the right of use asset related to this lease was not fully recoverable and recorded a pre-tax, non-cash asset impairment charge of $14.1 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The fair value of the right of use asset on March 31, 2025, was estimated under the income approach using a discounted cash flow technique, including assumptions for future sublease rental income and an appropriate discount rate. This technique involves estimates and uncertainties and actual results could differ. The impairment charge is included within operating income in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income under right-of-use asset impairment. The remaining carrying value of the ROU asset related to the Mexicali lease was $13.5 million at June 30, 2025.

  1. CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS

On September 8, 2021, the Company, as the borrower, entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”), and the other lenders thereto. The Credit Agreement has afive-year term and provides for up to an $85 million revolving line of credit. Subject to certain conditions, the Credit Agreement also provides for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount up to $5 million which, upon issuance, would be deemed advances under the revolving line of credit. Proceeds of borrowings were used to refinance all indebtedness owed to a prior lender and for working capital purposes. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all its assets, excluding real property. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants, including a financial covenant to maintain a fixed coverage ratio of not less than 1.00 to 1.00. In addition, the Loan Agreement places restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, to create liens or other encumbrances, to sell or otherwise dispose of assets, and to merge or consolidate with other entities. As of June 30, 2025, management believes the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

On April 18, 2022, the Company entered into a first amendment to the Credit Agreement (“First Amendment to the Credit Agreement”), with the Lender, and the lenders thereto. The amendment to the Credit Agreement changed the definition of the term "Payment Conditions" and further defined default or event of default and the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.

Subject to certain conditions, borrowings under the Credit Agreement initially bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% or 1.50%per annum. On May 24, 2023, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement”) with the Lender to transition the applicable interest rate from LIBOR to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).

Effectiveas of the date of the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement, borrowings under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at SOFR plus 1.36% to 1.61% or an effective interest rate of 5.76% on June 30, 2025.

On June 3, 2025, the Company entered into a third amendment to its Credit Agreement ("Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, NA. The amendment reduced the maximum revolving line of credit amount to $55 million and modified certain definitions in the Credit Agreement which include dollar figures derived from the maximum revolver amount. The reduction in the maximum revolving line of credit amount was initiated by the Company to better align with current and projected borrowing availability under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2025, there wereno outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement, exclusive of fees and letters of credit.

Letters of credit outstanding at the Lender as of June 30, 2025, totaled $0.9 million.

  1. INCOME TAXES

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that they believe the assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. As of June 30, 2023, it was determined the Company had reached a more-likely-than-not position that the Company will realize the entirety of its deferred tax assets. Therefore, the Company reversed the previously recorded valuation allowance against the federal and state deferred tax assets recorded as of June 30, 2022, of $9.8 million.

Income tax expense was calculated based upon the following components of income before income taxes for the years ended June 30:

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025, and 2024 that if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $0.6 million and $0.4 million respectively.

On June 30, 2025, certain state tax attribute carryforwards of $0.2 million were available, with $0.2 million of credits expiring beginning in fiscal years 2026 through 2028, and $0.1 million of state NOLs carryforward. Some of the state NOL carryforwards will have an indefinite carryforward and some will expire in varying amounts between 2035 and 2041. As of June 30, 2023, it was determined that the Company has reached a more-likely-than-not position that the Company will realize the entirety of its state attribute carryforwards and its U.S. federal deferred tax assets.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Generally, fiscal years 2021 through 2025 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes a number of provisions which impact the United States tax code. The regulations impacting the tax code have multiple effective dates ranging from fiscal years beginning January 1, 2025, to fiscal years beginning January 1, 2027. The Company has not adjusted its provision for income tax or measurement of deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2025, based on the changes that may be triggered by the OBBBA due tothe law being signed on July 4, 2025. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the OBBBA but does not expect it to have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

(1)

2022 Equity Incentive Plan

The 2022 Plan is a long-term incentive plan pursuant to which awards may be granted to certain employees, independent contractors and directors of the Company, in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance units, performance shares or other stock-based awards. For periods beginning on or after July 1, 2023, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") granted to officers and key employees as part of long-term compensation programs are issued from the 2022 Plan. RSUs and PSUs awarded from the 2022 Plan are included in the Long-Term Incentive Compensation or Restricted Share and RSUs tables below.

(2)

Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“LTIP”)

The LTIP provides for PSUs to be awarded to officers and key employees based on performance goals set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). In conjunction with each grant of PSUs, the Committee granted RSUs under the 2013 Omnibus Stock Plan that vested at the end of three years. No further awards will be issued under this plan.

(3)

2013 Omnibus Stock Plan

The 2013 Omnibus Stock Plan was for key employees, officers and directors and provides for the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and performance units. No further stock units will be granted under this plan.

For PSUs awarded for the three year performance periods ending June 2025, 2026 and 2027, achievement is based on meeting performance goals set for each year within the three year period.
